"The Christian Bear"

[Quiet Storm]

Does anyone have the story to this one? I think it was lambslove that posted it awhile back where there was an athiest who was about to be eaten by a bear and then He talked to God and the bear turned Christian. I don't want to spoil the punchline for anybody because it's hilarious, but if anyone knows it, please post it.

One of my campers at the camp I counsel at told me that joke.

I beleive the joke goes something like, "There was a man walking through the woods and he was being chased by a Lion. the man ran as far as he could, and then he collapsed. He began to pray and said 'God please make this Lion a christian' Just then he looked back and heard the Lion say 'Dear God, please bless this food to my body"

Yeah that's the gist of it. But lambslove's version was more like:
There was an athiest who refused to believe in God. One day, he was in the woods and all of a sudden a bear tracked him down. Just as he was about to be eaten, he screamed out, "God no!!!" Immediately, God appeared and said to him "I thought you didn't believe in Me" and the athiest said, "I don't." God said, "Well why did you call My name if you don't believe in Me?" and the athiest said "I don't know." God said something pertaining to the athiest being a Christian (forgot what it was) and the athiest said "Well God, I can't do that because I don't believe in You. But how about you make this bear a Christian?" (thinking that the bear would leave him alone, being that Christians are loving). So God said, okay I'll do that and immediately left. Suddenly, the bear stopped, knelt down on his knees, placed his paws together and said, "Father, I pray you bless the food You have given me for the nourishment of my body".
